About Chevrolet
Chevrolet, also known as Chevy, is a renowned American automobile division of General Motors (GM). The company was founded on November 3, 1911, by Louis Chevrolet, Arthur Chevrolet, and ousted General Motors founder William C. Durant. The Chevrolet Motor Car Company was used by Durant to acquire a controlling stake in General Motors, leading to a reverse merger on May 2, 1918. This move propelled Durant back to the GM presidency. After Durant's second ousting in 1919, Alfred Sloan chose the Chevrolet brand to become the volume leader in the General Motors family, selling mainstream vehicles to compete with Henry Ford's Model T. By 1929, Chevrolet had overtaken Ford as the best-selling car in the United States with the Chevrolet International.
Chevrolet's Global Presence
Chevrolet-branded vehicles are sold in most automotive markets worldwide. In Oceania, Chevrolet was represented by Holden Special Vehicles until 2021 when General Motors Specialty Vehicles took over the distribution and sales of Chevrolet vehicles in the region. In 2005, Chevrolet was relaunched in Europe, primarily selling vehicles built by GM Daewoo of South Korea. However, in late 2013, GM announced that the brand would be withdrawn from Europe from 2016 onward, with the exception of the Camaro and Corvette. Chevrolet vehicles continue to be marketed in the CIS states, including Russia.
Chevrolet in North America
In North America, Chevrolet produces and sells a wide range of vehicles, from subcompact automobiles to medium-duty commercial trucks. Due to the prominence and name recognition of Chevrolet as one of General Motors' global marques, 'Chevrolet', 'Chevy' or 'Chev' is used at times as a synonym for General Motors or its products. One example is the GM LS1 engine, commonly known by the name or a variant thereof of its progenitor, the Chevrolet small-block engine.
